This week we’re working with Environment Texas and several other activist groups in Austin and Houston to host free activist workshops and training days!
The training is being run by The Public Interest Network and will feature sessions on:
- * the best techniques for organizing your neighbors to take action, and* the best ways to persuade your local media to cover an issue you care about.
It’s a chance to learn, share ideas and connect with other environmentally active citizens, as well as activists from other causes.
Our own Ryan Rittenhouse and (Citizen) Sarah McDonald will be on-hand at the Austin workshop, and we hope to see you there! To register for the Austin workshop from Friday, Feb. 5, from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m., click here! To RSVP for the Houston training on Saturday, Feb. 6, from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., click here!
**Personal note: Attending one of these Houston trainings during my senior year at Rice University was one of the ways I got my foot in the activist/media door. The experience is definitely worth giving up a little TGIF/Saturday morning cartoon time. Hope to see you there, and if you go to Houston please let me know how your training day went!
